Let Me Die In My Footsteps - Bob Dylan
I will not go down under the ground
"Cause somebody tells me
that death's comin' 'round
An' I will not carry myself down to die
When I go to my grave my head will be high,
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
- 연 주 중 -
There's been rumors of war
and wars that have been
The meaning of the life
has been lost in the wind
And some people thinkin'
that the end is close by
"Stead of learnin' to live
they are learning to die.
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
I don't know if I'm smart but I think I can see
When someone is pullin' the wool over me
And if this war comes and death's all around
Let me die on this land 'fore
I die underground.
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
There's always been people
that have to cause fear
They've been talking of the war
now for many long years
I have read all their statements
and I've not said a word
But now Lawd God,
let my poor voice be heard.
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
Let me drink from the waters
where the mountain streams flood
Let me smell of wildflowers flow
free through my blood
Let me sleep in your meadows
with the green grassy leaves
Let me walk down the highway
with my brother in peace.
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
- 연 주 중 -
Go out in your country
where the land meets the sun
See the craters and the canyons
where the waterfalls run
Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Idaho
Let every state in this union
seep in your souls.
And you'll die in your footsteps
Before you go down under the ground.
